            Abstract : 
This paper presents the computational analysis of the Steiner tree problem on the Server-Client model of computation. In particular, this work analyzes the time delays among server and clients for the parallel Steiner tree algorithm and examines some consequences of time delays on the execution time by considering constant and variable delays.
